The Neighborhood Watch needs to keep a lookout for him during Halloween, he's one creepy crawly guy. Candy corns have been known to scare him away, like garlic for vampires. On charcoal or heather grey.

Ba‘al Zebûb or Ba‘al Zəvûv (Hebrew בעל זבוב, with numerous variants)[1] appears as the name of a deity worshipped in the Philistine city of Ekron.

In ancient contexts, there appears to have been little, if any, meaningful distinction between Beelzebub and the polytheistic Semitic god named Ba‘al. Monotheistic Jewish reference to Baal was almost certainly pejorative, and grew to be used among other terms for Satan. The name later appears as the name of a demon or devil, often interchanged with Beelzebul.

Examination has sought to interpret the meaning of Baal in context to determine the specific reasons for this connotation, and varied religious speculations have run the gamut.

Regardless, the demonization of the deity or deification is thought to have been one basis for the personification of Satan as the adversary of the Abrahamic God, though other influences such as the Zoroastrian Daeva may have contributed.

are you like refering to the demon. or are you just using the name to represent the creature? is this intended to be demonic? or just artistic?

I am currently serving as the High Priest of the Satanic Temple of Zubaal , we sacrifice ponies and elves. Our master serves in the giant white temple in Washington DC.... okay, enough fun.

Beaman, this was for the Stand Alone Monster "contest" organized in the blogs, I think by Fatheed. There is nothing more to this other than a monster cutting down a sign (the neighbourhood watch sign) which basically states to keep a lookout for this fellow.
